The latest version of PestPatrol was posted on September 7.
See http://www.pestpatrol.com for an eval version or to purchase a fully licensed copy.

Improvements include:

- Include tab: Scan All but Archives. Also, defaults for Selected files no longer list any archive files. Result: faster scanning.

- Now removes NewNet, NetSetter, and Webhancer spyware when found.

- Improved detection of other spyware products and cookies.

- Archive recursion: PestPatrol now scans archives within archives ... to an infinite depth.

- Onscreen progress reporting: Scanning of multi-megabyte archives seemed to stop PestPatrol because of poor onscreen progress reporting. This has been corrected.

- Export of Master Log to DOC and XLS file types in Windows 2000 machines with no installed copies of Word/Excel. This export capability has been removed, removing the error on that platform. Export of the MasterLog to CSV, TXT, XML, and HTML continues to work fine on all platforms.

So far the new version is working pretty well. It still is identifying a recycle bin Icon as Schoolbus 2.0 RAT, but I'm ignoring it as I deleted the original and restored it from CD and it is still detected as RAT. Outside of this, no complaints so far.
